They have shut down the claims.

Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis have broken their silence after their former nanny made “false” allegations regarding their personal life.

The couple called off their seven-year engagement in 2020 and were forced to release a joint statement after their former nanny shared alleged private details about their break up.

The former couple told CNN: “As parents, it is incredibly upsetting to learn that a former nanny of our two young children would choose to make such false and scurrilous accusations about us publicly.

“Her now 18 month long campaign of harassing us, as well as loved ones, close friends and colleagues, has reached its unfortunate apex.

“We will continue to focus on raising and protecting our children with the sincere hope that she will now choose to leave our family alone.”

Since her split with Jason, Olivia has gone on to date former One Direction star Harry Styles.

In an interview with The Daily Mail, the former nanny alleged that Jason had found messages between Olivia and Harry on an Apple Watch that Olivia had left at thier home.

She also claimed that Jason once laid under Olivia’s car to stop him from leaving their home after a fight. Jason was said to be upset with Olivia after she allegedly brought a salad with special dressing to have dinner with Harry.

The nanny told the publication: “Out of everything, he was like, ‘she made her special salad dressing and took it to him.’”

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Olivia confirmed she never dated Harry while with Jason, saying: “The complete horse**t idea that I left Jason for Harry is completely inaccurate. Our relationship was over long before I met Harry. Like any relationship that ends, it doesn’t end overnight.”

Olivia and Jason share two children, Otis, 8, and Daisy, 5, who they now co-parent together.
